Zorg Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Some more Atlas engine progress. This is the MA3 power pack for Atlas E/F which had fully independent LR89 booster engines. As such the booster skirt had a different shape for packaging compared to other Atlases. As already discussed, for the other LR89/RS-56OBA models, the shared power head was not practical to model so this simplified chamber will be provided. There will be mesh switches on the booster skirt for the exhaust from the implied shared turbo pumps. This is the MA2 power pack as an example.

Blufor878 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 What if the Saturn V, but all of the stages? I'm calling it Uranus V, because we all know Uranus is the most memeable planet for...reasons. Sorry I've been out for a hot minute. Work's kept me busy. Also other games and America Day celebrations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, rest assured, the Viking lander is coming hecc or high water. I actually just got my hands on Akron's lander model, and it is as GORGEOUS as I remember. But since that is still a far way off... I was thinking I might get the orbiter parts in game when they are ready. 8 hours ago, septemberWaves said: I'm very glad to see an Atlas expansion.

(Unless you just put it under the fairings and didn't show it) I really need to make a Patch for the S-V stage so it can have its proper non-balloon structure to go along with the RL-10B3 engines already in the Pafftek extras folder. Heavier but a lower boil-off rate... Now I gotta figure out how to config that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invaderchaos Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 As Cobalt is working on Viking Orbiter (and working his way towards Mariner 8/9) and Zorg is working on Atlas, I've decided to get back to finishing Mariner 6/7! It uses some of the same parts from my Mariner 3/4 part set (the bus, the engine, louvers, etc) along with new parts like its high-gain antenna, canopus tracker, low-gain antenna, and scan platform. Not sure when it's gonna get done but I've been making some decent progress on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

septemberWaves Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 12 hours ago, peter_12 said: 您好，我可以问一下这个模组支持现实的大修吗？ If you are using Realism Overhaul, you should install Realism Overhaul using CKAN. CKAN is an application which manages mods for this game. Here is the link to the CKAN Github page: https://github.com/KSP-CKAN/CKAN/releases In CKAN, search for something called "Realistic Progression One (RP-1) Express Install". You should install that. It will automatically install everything mandatory for use with Realism Overhaul. Certain parts from Bluedog Design Bureau are included in Realism Overhaul by default. Spacecraft for crew from this mod are included in Realism Overhaul. Not everything from this mod is in Realism Overhaul though. If you want to use the entirety of Bluedog Design Bureau, you cannot use Realism Overhaul because they will not work together. If you try to use Bluedog Design Bureau with Real Solar System, it will not work because the rockets in this mod are designed for a solar system that is smaller than the real one. I hope all of this translates properly for you with whatever translation method you use. If there is any confusion, I am happy to clarify if you ask.

You will have to build your own from scratch. Second, RO essentially creates their own parts using the BDB models, and rescales them appropriately, so I don't even thing the part names would stay the same. They don't rescale the fuel tanks at all, but they do include a select few of them, mostly the Saturn V tanks, in the modular fuel tanks that are a part of ROTanks, which is a part of the Realism Overhaul suite of mods.

space_otter Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Is Kerbalism support included/planned for this mod? I have a career save with kerbalism and BDB. However, the BDB contracts don't work with kerbalism - e.g., the leo docking contract specifies a 'micrometeorite scan' to be recovered, however the kerbalism science overhaul doesn't allow this data to be recovered, and the contract can't be completed. Any help would be much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would be much appreciated. You probably need to ask the Kerbalism team. They know how to write compatibility better than the BDB team are likely to. I might consider writing a proper Kerbalism patch at some point, but there's no guarantee and I currently have other projects. It's a complicated mod to provide correct compatibility for. For right now, if you want to use BDB parts and have proper support for Kerbalism and you don't want to write your own patch, I can only recommend RP-1 - though that lacks most of BDB besides the crew capsules and a few other parts (and I believe some engine models in ROEngines).
